Hi,
Yes the gecko id is being set in both versions, I assume there are no problems with the code itself as it remained unchanged between both versions. Additionally the addon works if i install the previous version or if i install the new version as a temporary addon.
Only the version line in the manifest.json (pasted below) changed.
{
"name": "Extension",
"version": "1.1.8b1", **-> this is the only line that changed between versions**
"manifest_version": 2,
"description": "Send a message to a native application.",
"applications": {
"gecko": {
"id": "#ID#",
"strict_min_version": "50.0"
}
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"all_frames": true,
"matches": ["<all_urls>"],
"js": ["browserScript.js"]
}
],
"background": {
"scripts": ["background.js"]
},
"icons": {
"128": "image.png"
},
"permissions": [
"nativeMessaging", "tabs"
],
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "image.png"
},
"web_accessible_resources" : ["injectedScript.js"]
}
